Preview: South Pike vs. Brookhaven
South Pike and Brookhaven take on one another this Friday at 7:00 PM on South Pike's home turf. If South Pike wants to avoid dropping the game, it will first need to focus on holding onto the ball since the team had three turnovers last game.
Last week South Pike came up short against North Pike, falling 36 - 26. The team got a solid performance out of sophomore quarterback Dontavious Turner (he ran for 84 yards and also punched in one touchdown); unfortunately, it just wasn't enough for the win.
Meanwhile, Brookhaven brought the heat last game after its low-scoring effort (three points) in the match before. It took its contest against Lawrence County last week by a conclusive 41 - 14 score. Brookhaven is ranked 25th in the state (many places ahead of Lawrence County), so the decisive victory wasn't entirely unexpected.
South Pike's defeat and Brookhaven's win put them both at 1-1. We'll find out if Brookhaven can snag another victory or if South Pike will turn things around for itself.
